350Z brakes

[gmjanssen]

I am in contact with someone who is looking to get rid of a 2003 350z. He is telling me that he replaced the brakes already with 10,000 miles on the car!!

Is it possible that Nissan hasn't learned about brakes in 30+ years?? Or is this guy riding them like an old lady? He doesn't have the Brembo option brakes on the car.

thanks!

Probably didn't wear them in correctly and warped his rotors. I worked for Nissan and let me tell you, I saw ONE set of 350z brakes get redone under warranty...the driver abused the hell out of it from mile one. Nissan makes decent brakes...just don't buy key value pads. Squeeeeeeeak.

He probably just abused them from the get-go, causing them to wear prematurely. Maybe too much track time.

My 350Z brakes (non-Brembo) are still going strong at 25,000 miles.

I don't think it has anything to do with Nissan brakes specifically.
